Washington: Biotech entrepreneur-turned-politician Vivek Ramaswamy is amongst the names that Republican frontrunner Donald Trump is considering as his running mate for Vice-President in the 2024 presidential polls.
The list includes three former GOP candidates, Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R). Trump also confirmed Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.), South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) and former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who served in Congress as a Democrat but has since shifted to more conservative views, is also in the running.
Trump confirmed “they are” on his shortlist but did not provide a timeline for when he will announce his vice presidential pick. He said, “all of those people are good. They’re all solid.”
Trump faces off against the only remaining challenger, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, in the GOP primary Saturday. He is currently leading Haley 63.8 percent to 33.1 percent, according to polling averages.
